”I wanted to drop a line to say how wonderful your book is. It’s so thorough and smoothly put together with stunning written and visual illustrations; it drags you in to know more; to read the next bit. It truly is a masterpiece. Please pass this on to everyone else who was part of making it happen; I’m sure those that were involved early and didn’t make it through must have been played their part to the final work.
G.R., Stevington, Bedfordshire.
